Can’t be, it’s a miaonochrome printer.

She does not throw up much, and we don’t have a carpet, but, yes. Must be careful to only have cat safe (and not valuable) plants around, they will nibble on them.

Not putting my hand in there, that’s for sure.

OK, here:

That’s her sister Lizzie. When she vocalizes, it’s always an exclamation.

“There’s a strange cat outside!”

“I hate the vacuum cleaner, could you not?!”

Background: I haven’t used weed in decades, I have no personal interest in its legal status.

I can’t think of a single bad thing that has happened. People are more open about smoking, you can smell it in the street sometimes. I live in a tourist destination, there are ads everywhere for dispensaries. I assume getting high is at least part of the attraction for visitors.

Also, I assume it has had a negative effect on illegal drugs - why bother? - but I wouldn’t know anyway.

Yes, I supported it at the time, have not changed my view.

She knows it, too. She usually does her best “Oh, do you like me?” look, like this, when she catches you looking at her.

She really likes boxes, too…

We can adapt one of theirs, how about “Tamp the dirt down” by Elvis Costello?

I agree, the majority of Americans are decent, not racist or various forms of genophobic, and resisting as best they can. The government and media has merged into a monster. ii looks huge and scary; that’s by design. If you give up hope, they have won.

That’s the problem, it doesn’t snow enough now… I used to be able to XC on trails in my hometown, now the snow is too thin and patchy. The ice is too thn on the lakes to be trustworthy. We get an extra 3 months of stick season, almost no snow season.

How does one go about touching more turtles? We have plenty of snapping turtles in the area but I think trying to touch them would be risky.

The company I work for has few fixed holidays, but lots of discretionary time off, and very little direct customer service, so it’s an individual choice. Many people take the week between Christmas and New Years off. I don’t; I’d rather have extra time off when the weather is warmer and I can play outside.

Eeyup, that looks about right. Congratulations.

We have 3 of them: misc kitchen utensils and tools, misc containers, and misc stuff that does not even belong in the kitchen, but ends up there because that’s the only drawers in the house that don’t have clothes in them.

If you want to organize it some, you can build or buy dividers and split it up.

Hooks on the back of the bedroom door.

“Good”, as in " Good morning!", also directed at the cat, who had been sleeping on top of me.

I wake up each day with a beautiful female who loves me. The that she’s a cat does have some effect on the relationship.

Funny that, I did exactly that with that post… I probably run about 50% overall on these.

Sometimes I look at what I’m about to post and decide that nobody really needs to see that.

Sometimes I look at the other comments and decide I don’t want to interact with the whole thing.

Immersion does work, but here’s a more enjoyable version:

Take 4 years in school, don’t learn enough to talk to anyone.

Marry a Latino/a.

Go visit their original country with them.

Feel like an idiot.

Practice with your spouse.

Go back and feel less like an idiot.

This has the advantage of getting a hot spouse, and slightly less likely to be killed before you learn enough.

It’s a good way to pay for illicit drugs, weapons, anything really, that you ordered using TOR, or your favorite unattributable communications technique. If you believe there are laws that should not be, that’s good. If you are in favor of those laws, not so much.
